A great minimal-effort-maximum-effect recipe. Need a quick recipe for a potluck? Forget to make treats for your child's school bake sale? This is the recipe for you. Better than any supermarket brownie mix and just as fast and easy to make! Good, strong chocolate punch with a decadently chewy texture; it's sure to appeal to many. I love this one plain with a ganache topping sprinkled with toffee chips. I also like to replace the walnuts with a heaping half cup of macadamia nuts and a half cup of white chocolate chunks. Not my favorite brownie recipe, but it's the one I make the most. They can be tricky to remove from the pan. I make a "brownie sling" out of tin foil buy folding the foil to fit the pan leaving about 4 inches overhanging on both sides of the pan, butter and dust the pan with the foil in it, add the batter and bake. They lift right out of the pan. As with most brownie recipes, be careful not to overbake. Moist crumbs should still cling to the cake tester. Also, I have doubled this recipe and baked it in a 9x13 pan with no problems.

These brownies had a nice chocolate flavor without being too sweet. I also liked the chewy texture. I noticed some other users had difficulty removing from the pan. I floured the pan well and had no problem at all.

I really loved the way they tasted but couldn't get them out of the pan. Gooey is an understatement. I had to use a spoon to eat them. I didn't use the walnuts so maybe that's why. I need a brownie I can wrap my fingers around. I couldn't with these.

Oh. my. god. These are the best brownies I have ever made. Everyone who has eaten them loves them. They are gooey and yummy and fabulous. The one caveat is that they are a little bit gross-looking to give as gifts, due to their gooey nature. But sooooo good.

I've been making these brownies for years-probably found them in the same magazine article mentioned in the review. They're wonderful, easy, foolproof and need the walnuts (pecans are good too). I like to use cocoa powder to "Flour" the pan instead of flour.
